My class's a harem master? Is that what I think it is?
Hahaha! I have a class that was made for me. Nothing will stop me from conquering everything and taking all the beauties, though I'll first have to familiarize myself with this world and its rules. Considering, I have a whole year before I have to actually prove my worth, I'll make sure to show this world that I'm more than worthy! Crying won't take me anywhere, so let's make the most of this.
"He has a high tier
"Not only that my queen, Prince Kral even has Extra tier
Prince Kral? Huh? I like the sound of that and honestly, can't wait to be called King Kral... If become powerful enough I might even be called Emperor Kral someday... Truly dreamy.
"It seems our future ruler isn't completely hopeless."
"How comforting it is to know we truly stand a chance."
"Maybe beheading him would be a waste, only time will tell."
"This boy is a box full of surprises, maybe I should apply to his harem and show him the pleasure of a mature woman."
"As long as he is properly trained and instructed in our ways we might actually be witnessing the beginnings of the greatest Demon King in all of Fastio's history!"
Just like before multiple comments were thrown around as they just judged me without having a good understanding of my capabilities, which I wonder if it's just a demon thing or it's because I'm an otherworlder, and then again humans also act this way at times.
Anyway, considering all the isekai I've read
"Kral, your status has shown us that you have great potential and that our sacrifices were not in vain, from this point on, you'll be given a room of your own and lessons on various topics related to our world. Aside from that, your combat abilities will have to be refined, but we'll talk more about that another day. For today Zelina will accompany you to your room and we'll see each other again tomorrow. In the name of all the people of Fastio and the Demon kind in general, I thank you for u your cooperation." Claire expressed what seemed to be genuine gratitude towards me.
"That works. So, shall we go?" I asked.
Nothing else was said but for some reason, I felt like I somehow messed up again. Zelina then guided me to my room, which was fairly big with a king-sized bed and adorned with a bunch of expensive-looking stuff.
"Prince Kral, with all due respect but as a future ruler of the demon kind it is unsightly to see you act this soft. So I would like to request that you behave accordingly to that position." Zelina bowed to me as she pleaded. It was weird to see and it felt like a request out of worry rather than anything else.
"I mean, I'm not opposed to the idea, but I'm not exactly sure how a Demon King acts." I had a few stereotypes in mind but I didn't want to act like that only to get corrected later, so I believe it's best to just ask.
"It is quite simple actually, the Demon King doesn't ask, he demands, what he wants, he takes, No disrespect to his name shall be tolerated and no one will ever be allowed to stand above him. He must be the strongest ruler, fearless and unrelenting. Those are the basics to being the Demon King." Zelina explained.
Yeah, it's pretty in line with the cliches that I know of. All those years on earth being taught that I had to be humble and polite, only to get here and get all that thrown out the window. Whatever it's not like I gain anything from holding onto my human values.
"Thanks, Zelina, this will serve me well." I expressed my gratitude.
"My prince, words of express gratitude should be saved for your wife, your mistresses, and your combines. To citizens, nobles, and servants such as myself to say well done or you served me well, or in more intimate cases Keep up the good work will be more than enough... Lastly, when it comes to slaves it is recommended that you either say nothing or something me among the lines of Satisfactory." Zelina responded by correcting me.
"Good, Now Zelina, I'll have you answer a few of my questions." Trying to match the profile she gave me, I'm a bit more careful with the words I use.
"Yes, my prince! What is it that you wish to know?" Zelina kneeled before me for the first time and I have to admit, I like this feeling, and before I knew it my little brother rose from my excitement.
Unlike before when she was unfazed, now a blush could be seen on her face as she obviously noticed my erection, but that wasn't what surprised me, what surprised me was that my shaft had leveled up since the last time it was up. When I first woke up in this world it could reach a bit above my belly button when erect, but now it was almost at my chest's level... What the hell?! Is it because now I'm fully summoned to this world? Oh gosh, that's something else. If I had to guess, I'd say it's about 35cm(13.8 inches) long and 10cm(3.9 inches) in diameter, now that it's fully erect.
(AN: It's like 15cm(5.9 inches) long and 4cm(1.5 inches) in diameter when flaccid if anyone was wondering. We're all civilized degenerates around here, after all.)
Damn, I went from 15cm(5.9 inches) when erect back on earth to a frikin 35cm(13.8 inches) here... I honestly don't know how to feel about this, I mean it's nice that it's bigger and all, but do I need all this? More importantly, will I even be able to use it? I need to know.
"Zelina, what's the average dick size for demons?" I asked shamelessly.
"Well, my prince that will depend, but at large or for the most part it is in between 20-25cm(8-10 inches), for Demon Kings it tends to be around 27-30cm(11-12 inches), and for Incubus it's from 27cm(11 inches) to 500cm/5m(196inches/16ft4 inches), as they can change it at will. All those values when erect. Demon females due to that have high elasticity adapted to the situation being able to comfortably take up to 300cm/3m(118.11 inches/9ft10inches) before it becomes deadly, Succubus being able to take up to 600cm/6m(236 inches/19ft8 inches)." Zelina calmly explained as if it was the most normal thing ever.
"What?! Why all that?" I couldn't help but ask.
"It has to do with the millenniums we spent as slaves to the Dragons before we could achieve liberation and rule ourselves. According to alchemists and philosophers' studies on the subject because of how long our race was subjected to Draconic anatomy, our bodies developed to be able to handle it and theories affirm that there was magic manipulation from the Dragons to achieve this result." Zelina continued to casually explain things to me.
A part of me wanted to express sympathy but considering what Zelina told me about being the Demon King, she'll probably get mad at me if I do.
"So dragons exist in this world... Do they rule the world?" I ask out of curiosity.
"Not anymore. They used to be the supreme rulers of Sothringa, but after various races united and managed to develop the otherworld summing ritual by appealing to the Gods and their pleas were answered and that was when the first and only ever a True Hero appeared in this world. He led the army of the various races and slaughtered most of the dragons, the rest being too afraid to fight back isolating themselves to this day.
Unfortunately, the otherworld Hero at the time was a human and thus was biased wanting to give them more power than the rest, this led to the ruling subrace of many races almost being killed to extinction except demons who actually had their ruling subrace killed to extinction. Due to the many injuries, the true hero had incurred when he fought the dragons, his fight with the first Demon King was the last for both of them. After that, the first Sothringa war was fought and it ended with various races taking the various territories of Sothringa that no longer had the influence of the Dragons. Many many years passed and here we stand today." Zelina told me without getting up from kneeling.
"So, all the other races also adapted to Draconic anatomy?" I asked.
"No, only demons were used as sex slaves since only our bodies were strong enough to handle Dragons. The other races would at most, engage in intercourse with lesser dragons like wyverns and drakes or dragonnewts. Though there are rumors that state that dragons could turn into humanoids at their discretion, not doing it because they saw it as the lesser form that only lower beings should have." Zelina clarified.
"Ok... I'll have that in mind. Now, tell me about affinities, Jobs, classes, skills, unique skills, magic, and skill tiers." I posed all my current doubts about my status screen.
"Yes, my prince. Affinities are there to express what type of magic can be used by the owner of the status, and while some affinities can be developed, it is not an easy process and it's more likely that an individual will only have the affinities they had at birth by the end of their life. As for magic itself, it simply requires a lot of practice and understanding of how each element in specific works, not to mention the various non-elemental types of magic, I would recommend my prince waits for tomorrow when your lessons on the subject start." Zelina began answering my questions.
"Fine, move on and tell me about the rest." I reply.
"When it comes to Jobs, they can also be called sub-classes, they are basically all the classes that aren't your primary and unlike a class of which you can only have, you can have multiple jobs. As for classes themselves, they are the defining core of your abilities and growth. While everyone can earn experience through the act of killing, not only is it problematic but it also makes you a target of the Gods, as they have disdain for the act of killing their worshipers for exp. Though it is fine to mass murder monsters and an extent demons. Now back to classes, doing class-related work or performing some actions will give you exp without having to kill anything. Though different classes have different requirements, in the end, it's best to focus on using your class or killing monsters to level up than anything else." Zelina elaborated.
"That's... Different..." I was surprised to hear there would be consequences aside from moral stuff and jail if you commit mass murder but then again in a world where magic and Gods exit, it's not too weird, especially considering how brutal and morally different demons seem to be.
"Moving on to Skills, they are abilities gained upon birth or when the Gods recognize you as deserving of one for your deviation to an activity or action. It is hard to know what can and can't be a skill, that only the Gods themselves know. As for unique skills, they are skills that can only be had by one individual in Sothringa at a time, they tend to be very powerful or have very unusual effects that normal skills can't quite match."
I didn't say anything and decided to let her finish first.
"Finally, Skill tiers are a ranking system to classify how powerful overall the skill you have is at the moment. It starts at Low tier, followed by Intermediate tier, High tier, Extra tier, Master tier, Grandmaster tier, Prodigy tier, and at last Divine tier. Though the only records of anyone with any Divine tier skills are of the True Hero himself." Zelina finished her explanation.
"That will do, but now I have two other questions. When you say Sothringa, are talking about the continent, or do you mean the whole planet? And how do I see my unique skills if I have any?" I asked.
"Sothringa is the name of our world. As for the unique skills, you can check your status screen without the evaluation stone and you'll actually get more information than by using it. You just have to think about it and chant it." Zelina responded.
"Before you go, just tell me, If I have any other use for you, how do I call you here?" I asked one last question before she left.
"Tomorrow in the morning I'll bring an item for that, but if my prince needs anything there will always be at least one servant available outside your room." Zelina responded.
"Ok, you're dismissed." I finally let her go.
Zelina immediately got up and left the room closing the door on her way out.
Now, I guess I should look at my actual status screen.

Looking at my status, I use the unassigned attribute points and add one to each attribute. This kind of balanced distribution was never recommended and would always lead to subpar developments in the late game, but I never cared before, it's not today that I'm going to start.
Not having much I could do right now, I decided to sleep and worry about all of this tomorrow.
____________________________________________
While Kral was slowly falling asleep in this room, Zelina had just gotten to Claire's room.
"So, what did he do?" Claire asked as she sat on her bed with her legs crossed.
"Nothing notable as of yet. All he did was ask me multiple questions." Zelina reported while kneeling on the ground.
"Tell me everything, what did he ask about?" Claire inquired.
"He first began by questioning me about the average size of male demons' genitalia and-" Zelina began answering but was interrupted.
"Wait, that was the first thing he asked about?" Claire questioned clearly disappointed by this.
"Yes, my Queen, that was the first thing Prince Kral asked me about." Zelina calmly replied.
"Unbelievable... This is the man we'll have put the hopes of all our people on... Why me... Why me... Proceed with your report." Claire began rubbing her temple for a few seconds before turning to Zelina once again.
Zelina then proceeded to retell the events exactly as they had happened to Claire who was no longer worrying about the situation and was rather just listening with no expectations whatsoever.
"So through all of that, not once did he ask about his race or our plans for him?" Claire raised her left eyebrow as she asked.
"No, my Queen. He did not show interest in any of those two things at all while I was with him." Zelina replied.
"I see, so he's either too carefree or much more confident in his abilities than his attitude let on, or too trusting and or simply an idiot. No matter the answer, I want you to keep close eyes on him and report anyone unusual or suspicious he does. We're at point where we can't afford to make mistakes and I hope you remember that, Zelina." Claire said.
"Yes, my Queen. I'll do my best for our Kingdom!" Zelina shouted showing a glimpse of emotion besides disgust and disappointment, but it was short-lived and instantaneous.
"You know what to do. You're free to go now." Claire dismissed Zelina who left closing the door behind her.
Claire now being left alone, let herself, lay on her bed before closing her eyes and saying. "Please give me the strength to keep things together until the big moment... I can't let your sacrifice be in vain... No, I won't let it be! I promise!" She then sighed before getting up and leaving the room.
Like that, the first night that Kral spent in another world was a peaceful one.
